Wales beat Ireland 25-7 at the Principality Stadium to complete a Grand Slam in this year’s Six Nations Championship. They dominated Ireland from start to finish to ensure Warren Gatland became the first coach in history to win three Grand Slams after the triumphs in 2008 and 2012.

Here’s how the 2019 title decider played out…

2min: TRY! A good Wales chase from the kick-off forces Ireland into touch and gives the hosts a lineout in the 22. They set the drive, Ken Owens splinters off, then Gareth Davies feeds Gareth Anscombe, who kicks the ball with the outside of his boot.

Hadleigh Parkes collects the chip and touches down for the opening try after one minute, ten seconds. Anscombe converts.

Wales 7-0 Ireland

7min:Ireland penalty. Johnny Sexton spots an opportunity out wide and puts in a cross-field kick for Jacob Stockdale. The winger collects the ball, sprints down the wing past Gareth Davies before Hadleigh Parkes brings him to ground and Stockdale knocks on.

40min: Wales penalty. James Ryan spotted to have knocked the ball on as he tackled Josh Navidi and Ireland are penalised at the subsequent scrum. Gareth Anscombe kicks the points.

HALF-TIME: Wales 16-0 Ireland

51min: Wales penalty. Ireland don’t roll away at a ruck and Gareth Anscombe steps up to the tee again.

Wales 22-0 Ireland

55min: Ireland penalty. Ireland opt to kick for a lineout in the 22. After a series of pick-and-goes from the forwards, Conor Murray feeds Johnny Sexton but miscommunication with Rob Kearney results in pass rolling into touch.

59min: Ireland disrupt the lineout that follows but Cian Healy cannot pick up the loose ball before it rolls into touch. Ireland get throw-in but a few phases later Justin Tipuric disrupts their ruck and Wales get a scrum following a knock-on. Then the hosts clear.

62min: Wales put in a kick behind the Irish defence, Keith Earls gets to the ball first and touches down for a 22 dropout, but a TMO check shows the Ireland winger carried the ball over the try-line and it’s a 5m scrum for Wales. Then Ireland win a penalty at that scrum and clear.

66min: Josh Adams breaks through the middle of the pitch and kicks ahead. Jordan Larmour collects the ball and Keith Earls clears to just outside the 22.

69min: Wales penalty. Andrew Porter penalised at the breakdown and Gareth Anscombe slots the three points.
